All those detractors who accused it of "race-baiting" only proves why a series like this is so relevant and necessary. But Dear White People is not arrogant or deranged enough to think it's got the answers. It's simply asking the questions.

Dear White People is a pop culture-savvy, sometimes explicit, always entertaining look at that process. It's the perfect series for young people negotiating a world where struggles over identity grow more complex every day.

As quick to back up its arguments as it is to acknowledge differing opinions, [DWP] always feels like a personal story first and intelligent satire second... I've spent three hours at Winchester. And I only want more.

Audience Reviews for Dear White People: Season 1

½

Outstanding, outrageous and above all satirical, Dear White compliments and criticizes every racial aspect of modern society while creating thought-provoking dialogue and sequences that explore other social problems, spiced with witty doses of brilliant humor.
